Large Plant Sees Numerous Improvements from Switch to Ignition
The purpose of this project was to swap out the site’s previous SCADA system with Ignition. The site previously used 23 servers to run its SCADA system; the Ignition system now uses four. The site previously ran on Windows, but as a part of this upgrade the SCADA system (servers and clients) is exclusively running on Linux. This has provided a lot of flexibility to tailor the system architecture to the site’s needs.
